Lit X-Wing: Mercy Kill (Major spoilers now!)

New cover (with less explosions ) revealed on facebook. They've said this will be the final cover.


Here's the old one for comparison.

Yeah. I liked the first cover much more. The new one doesn't match the X-Wing series style.

But you all already know that.

Clearly they're capitalizing on the iconography.

I also like the old one better. That being said, I can sorta see what they're going for with the new one, it makes the centre X-wing much more prominent.

So we finally get a cover that most people seem to like, and they change it. Figures.

This doesn't decrease my excitement for this book any though.

Maybe it's because of the flashbacks.

Well, to be fair, the seal of the New Republic and Galactic Alliance are based on the Rebel Starbird, so it works.

I'm ok with it though I do think the X-wing gets lost in the insignia and I don't like that.

Maybe I'm half-blind or something, but I honestly can't tell a difference between those two covers

How? lol

Are you color blind? (Honest question cuz I know some people are.)

Usually not, but sometimes I've been told I am. Was just the color changed or something? The first post said something about less explosions

Well if you look at the image there is an explosion off to the left on the original and not on the new one. The color scheme went from orange (for Xwings) to blue and that looks a lot like the Clone Wars books that were released.

In these two images?????

Edit: Oh I see. The wookieepedia page updated the image. Can someone pull up an image of the old one again?

Edit: LI beat me to it.
